...I'm having a hard time saying that this is a game you should play.

The absolute freedom and customization of the farm land is fantastic, I'm making basically a slowly elevating garden, and a bitchin' flower bed serving as an ornamental walkway out of my home into the wild land area. Elevation you farm at has a chance to give you unique vegtables as well.

But you don't go into town. It's people showing up in your place on certain days. You really end up without the same chamr other harvest moons or Rune Factory have. Still some great characters and what not though.

I woudl adore for some of these aspects to leak over into the original team or the Rune Factory guys (not sure when we'll se the next game due to Marvelous shutting down a while ago. I've heard nothing on what was to become of Rune Factory 5. ) But damn, there are some fantastic elements in this game.
